Well, yesterday - Had a bath, dressed, then set off to catch the bus for an appointment for MRI scan on my prostate. During the 100yard walk to the bus, I discovered my wallet was absent from my jeans back pocket, panic, panic, panic. It had my bus pass, cards and driving licence in it. My wallet is always kept in the back pocket of what-ever outdoor clothes I am currently wearing. Dash back home, did a quick search, nothing found, but no time to waste due to the appointment. Last time I definitely had the wallet - Thursday, when using the bus pass on the bus from Lidl, I'd not left home since then. Managed whilst waiting to be seen for MRI, to cancel both Visa and credit card in the wallet, luckily partner had my other Visa card, so no need to cancel that, and still usable on my phone.
My best guess, was that it may have popped out of my pocket, on the crowded bus, on the way back from Lidl, that someone had handed it in, and it was now at the bus depot - but 5pm Saturday and a bank holiday.. I normally check my valuables are where they should be, when getting off - but this time it was so crowded, and I was struggling with heavy bags, I may have omitted doing that.
Once home and with time, I searched the house, garden, garage and found nothing. I rang the police, to see if it might have been handed in, the local Metro, and researched getting a new pass, getting a new driving licence.
I spent the entire evening, looking and trying to second guess where I might have lost it, then finally when I thought I'd covered everything - I went to bed. Getting changed, sat on the bed, I thought of one more place I hadn't looked - just under the side of the bed - and there it was. It must have fallen out of my jeans pocket as I was sat on the bed, putting them on, then I must have just nudged it under with my foot..
